Highlights

Upgraded Aluminium Performance Components

Upgraded Aluminium Performance Components

The XRT receives substantial aluminium upgrades in key areas like the suspension, chassis, and drivetrain. These strong metal parts improve high-speed stability and precision, creating a highly durable truck built to handle the demands of 8S power. It's engineered for strength and long-lasting performance.

Traxxas Link™ Wireless Module Included

Traxxas Link™ Wireless Module Included

A Traxxas Link™ Wireless Module comes standard to access the truck's on-board telemetry. Using the free Traxxas Link app on your mobile device, you can make micro-adjustments to the transmitter and view real-time data like speed, motor RPM, and battery voltage while you drive.

High-Traction Belted Gravix® Race Tyres

High-Traction Belted Gravix® Race Tyres

The XRT's belted Gravix® race tyres offer dependable performance on and off the track. The directional tread provides excellent traction and runs quieter than typical off-road tyres. Internal belting maintains the tyre's shape at high speeds for a larger contact patch, more grip, and responsive handling.

High-Torque, Metal-Geared Steering Servo

High-Torque, Metal-Geared Steering Servo

With over 46kg-cm (650oz-in) of torque and full steel gears, the High-Torque Maxx Servo gives the XRT complete steering authority. The servo case features an anodised aluminium centre section with cooling fins and uses ball bearings for increased precision, ensuring responsive steering even with the wide Gravix tyres.

Unique ProGraphix® Body with Internal Frame

Unique ProGraphix® Body with Internal Frame

The XRT features a unique body and graphics to set it apart. For added protection during rollovers, it includes tough body reinforcements and a rigid internal frame. This extra support helps keep the body looking fresh for longer, even after intense bashing sessions.

    This has to be the fastest stock RC I've owned, sticks like glue, and really throws gravel while doing drift corners
